CHALLENGE Pairs Jigsaw Puzzle Contest at Malcolm Yards - June 2026

Grab a friend and see how quickly you can complete a 500 piece puzzle. Prizes will be awarded to the top finishing pairs. There will also be door prizes. All pairs get to keep their competition puzzle.

HOW DOES IT WORK:

Each pair will receive the same puzzle concealed in a bag. No one will see the puzzle before the timer starts. After a countdown, pairs will open their boxes and start puzzling. A competition judge will monitor teams and record finishing times. Once you have completed your puzzle, you may leave, or stay and work on another puzzle and enjoy a drink or two!

RULES:

• You may eat and drink while competing
• You may use box top holders and sorting trays
• You are allowed to bring extra lighting as long as it does not need to be plugged in to an outlet and does not interfere with the lighting for other competitors. These are great lights to use: https://amzn.to/3IAWd7S
• You are not allowed to distract or interfere with other teams

DETAILS:

6-7pm: Optional casual puzzling happy hour. Grab a drink and warm up for the main event! Practice puzzles will be provided.

7-9pm: Speed puzzling contest starts - It's your time to shine!

Tables are a mix of regular height and high tops that are shared with another pair

$40 per pair

There are no refunds, but if you are not able to make the event, we can arrange pick-up for your contest puzzle.
